this was a good week
This was a good week! Here’s why:
• We had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday with family and friends, our Christmas trees are up (check out the captions in the photos to understand why we have more than one tree), and tomorrow is the one year anniversary of our receiving our keys to this house, ending our Hurricane Harvey adventure. Woohoo!
• As you begin your holiday shopping, please don’t forget these beautiful necklaces from my friend Kisii — proceeds from their sale help bring light to people in need (in developing countries, or to folks who have lost electricity due to a natural disaster). She’s already raised hundreds of dollars in donations (thank you to those who’ve already purchased!) — let’s keep it going!
• Ever wondered what happened to E.T.? This commercial lets you know he and Elliott are doing great. (Grab some tissues!)
• This artist uses a single strand of thread to make incredible portraits, and my brain can’t even begin to understand how he does this.
• The arm cast these students designed seems brilliant. Hopefully we’ll see more of these in the future?
• Apparently, the adage “elephants never forget” is real. Here’s a beautiful example.
• I love this short film about the hula.
• And finally, for today’s soundtrack (and speaking of dance): since we’re approaching the end of a decade, it seems appropriate to look back at the evolution of dance from 1950 to now. Because why not?
